What part of town are you staying in?

I'd suggest you try some or all of the following-

Oklahoma Joe's

Gates & Sons

Arthur Bryant's

Jack Stack



Cheesy Mustache QB might make an appearance.

    The very best.
Ask your morgantown butt buddies.
It is a tragedy because now, we have at least an extra month without Cat football until next year. I hate wasting my life away but I can hardly wait until next year.

Everything PISS recommended except Gates.  It's ok, but not as good as the others. ;)

    You can't be racist and like basketball.
LC's is my favorite.  I'm not an Arthur Bryant's fan.  Everything else is pretty good.

I've heard good things about LC's but never have gone over there to try it.  What do you recommend there? Ribs, Brisket? Pork? Chackon?  Let me know and i'll grab some and give it a run.

I tried to make my list the biggies that encompass all things KC BBQ.  Where would LC's fit in terms of sauce base (vinegar or molasses)?  Their beans & fries good too?

I don't know.  I just liked it.  I haven't gotten anything but beef.  Sauce is sweeter than Gates.  Beans are OK.

Oklahoma Joe's is the favorite of everyone living in Johnson County.

Yes, I'm serious.  There isn't a single person living in Johnson County who doesn't think that crazy place in a gas station isn't the best BBQ ever.  Not one.

It's pretty good, though.  It doesn't have the "SOUL" of KC BBQ though.  LC's, Rosedales, AB's... :lick:

Don't direct your snobbery towards those who like Oklahoma Joes - just Zarda and KC Masterpiece.  :jerkoff:

I like Oklahoma Joe's, too.  I don't like it as well as LC's or Gates, but I like it more than everywhere else.  I just like making fun of Joco-ians.  KC Masterpiece is too easy - even Joco's turn their nose up at that place - it's kind of like a music snob lambasting someone for liking Nickelback.  Never eaten at Zarda.

You don't like AB's because of the sauce, right?

They do have the best fries, though.  Maybe followed closely by Rosedales.

Well, the sauce and because everything tasted like nasty crap (everything everyone got, both times I've been there).

You're making fun of Joco people for liking a place that you like? Pure gold.

I don't think i've met anyone who thought it was nasty crap.  Maybe they didn't like the sauce (it's different) but other than that, no complaints.

I make fun of people for liking "Famous Daves" even though i've eaten there before and didn't think it was terrible.

Everyone I have actually dined with hated it.  Mine was "OK".

I've also made fun of dorky KSU fans.

I guess I like it more than anything because it's what i'm used to, i've been going there for years.  I like slipping around on the greasy floor and getting "FRIES?!??!" or "WHATCHU DRINKIN?!" yelled at me.  Beef and fry or burnt ends  :lick:

Some BBQ factoids:
I ate at Famous Daves.  It really did not taste bad, as much as I wanted it to.  That doesn't mean it was good or compared to KC BBQ. But it wasn't bad.

AB's still cooks their fries in lard.  LOLLING @ transfat.

Zarda is beyond terrible.  No further comment needed.

Ok Joe's recently upped the price of their fries from $1.75 to $3.00, now they're labeled as "The Best Fries In KC"  :blahblah:  too much salt imo.  I hear their ribs are the best in town but haven't tried them.  I usually go with a jumbo pulled pork or a zman.

Rosedale is one that I need to revisit. It's been years since I ate there and don't believe my palate had quite matured to the level of master bbq taster like it has now.

The LARD makes them fantastic. 

OK Joes fries are not very good, IMO.

Another I forgot to mention - Haywards. IT SUCKS, but it used to be good.
